Steven C. Miller’s Under the Bed Gets an Effective International Trailer

“The Aggression Scale” director Steven C. Miller’s “Under the Bed” was picked up by the folks at XLrator during the 2012 American Film Market. In order to prepare French moviegoers for the film’s upcoming release, a new trailer for the creature feature has found its way online.

As someone who lived in perpetual fear of the monster under his bed, I can relate to what Miller and company are trying to accomplish with this feature. And while the director’s work is hit and miss for me, this one seems to be hitting all the right notes.

Here’s what the flick is all about:

Every child knows about the monster under the bed—Neal Hausman’s mistake was trying to fight it. Neal (Jonny Weston) has returned from a two-year exile following his tragic attempt to defeat the monster, only to find his father ticking ever closer to a breakdown, a new stepmother who fears him, and his little brother, Paul (Gattlin Griffith), terrorized by the same monster. While Neal and Paul work together to try to fight the nocturnal menace, their parents are taking desperate measures to get the family back to normal. With no support from their parents, the brothers have nothing to rely on but each other and courage beyond belief.

“Under the Bed,” also known as “Scary,” will arrive in France later this year. I’m not entirely sure when this one will show up in the States. We’ll definitely let you know as soon as any information about its release bubbles to the surface. Have a look at the trailer below.
